Piraeus, also known as Pireas, is the principal port city of the Athens metropolitan area and one of Greece’s most important maritime centres.

The city is situated on the Saronic Gulf and has extensive connections with the Greek islands and other Mediterranean destinations.

Akti Miaouli is a waterfront thoroughfare associated with shipping, maritime business and port-related activities.

The Netherlands has internationally significant maritime, transport and logistics sectors, making the port environment of Piraeus relevant to Dutch-Greek business connections.

The honorary consul’s published address should not be confused with the address of the Embassy of the Netherlands in Athens.

For the official location details, consult the Dutch government contact page for Piraeus.

The Dutch Honorary Consulate in Piraeus does not process routine Dutch passport, identity card or visa applications.

The official honorary consul page directs people who need travel documents, visas or certificates of residence to the appropriate embassy or NetherlandsWorldwide service.

Applying for a Dutch Passport or Identity Card in Greece

Dutch citizens living in Piraeus, Athens or elsewhere in Greece should begin with the NetherlandsWorldwide application guide for Greece.

Create a personalised document checklist for every applicant, including children.

The checklist explains which forms, existing identity documents and supporting records are necessary.

Proof of Residence in Greece

Applicants must provide acceptable evidence that they are legally resident in Greece.

Depending on the applicant’s situation, the required evidence may include an EU citizen registration certificate, documentation confirming permanent residence or other records identified by the personal checklist.

Applicants who also hold Greek nationality may use a valid Greek passport or identity card where permitted by the published guidance.

Review the requirements for originals, copies and translations before attending an appointment.

Greek Birth and Marriage Certificates

The NetherlandsWorldwide Greece application guide explains the requirements for Greek birth and marriage certificates.

Greek civil-status certificates do not need legalisation under the passport application procedure described in the guide.

Translation requirements may still apply, depending on the language and format of the document.

A multilingual extract or qualifying multilingual standard form may help satisfy the relevant requirements.

Appointments at the Dutch Embassy in Athens

Once the documents identified in the personal checklist are ready, applicants can book an appointment at the Embassy of the Netherlands in Athens.

If applying for both a passport and an identity card, separate appointments are required.

All applicants must appear in person, including children.

Bring the completed, printed and signed application form, printed personal checklist and all required original documents.

For applications involving minors, parental or guardian consent documents may be necessary.
